I just love how in The LEGO Movie Chris Pratt plays Emmet and Charlie Day plays Benny while in the The Mario Movie Chris Pratt plays Mario while Charlie Day plays Luigi.

[@yoshi_chuck05]

I didn’t know that Charley Day voiced Benny lol. But I hear it now 😂

[@wwb16]

the lego movie is basically the matrix for kids

[@Isaiah_Debeste]

I love how that clip with the ninja was supposed to be a joke but then it came true after the movie came out.

[@HisSimulacrum]

No wayyyy YOUR THIS UNDERRATED???

[@V0RTA]

The first Lego Movie was a banger but the sequel didn’t meet the expectations of the first movie. It was fine but it’s not that impactful, but I did find a slight enjoyment from it.

underrated channel fr

[@lasercraft32]

This movie is 10 years old already? I feel old. :(

[@ToonyTails]

So do I, and I’m only 17

[@BaronDipitous]

What a beautiful tribute to my favorite movie. Couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you.

[@tylermitchell7686]

Thanks for that look back! For me personally the Ninjago Movie is another highlight. It was the first of the Lego movies I watched (and my first contact with Ninjago) and Justin Theroux as Lord Garmadon alone is worth a million rewatches. 🙂

[@Regor-mv8ti]

I saw this and realized this guy has less than 100k subscribers. What the fuck, this guy is great he deserves WAAAY more than less than 500 subscribers.

[@dinomation]

Definitely one of my favorite movies, it’s so creative and fun to watch!

[@luigimario5944]

I love this movie, I watched this in theaters when I was a little kid! And Emmet’s is still beautiful! 🧡🥹

[@MinecraftWorld1954]

This film is one of my favorite movies of all time and my 4th favorite animated movie ever made behind the Spiderverse movies and How To Train Your Dragon. Every frame of this movie is a treat for the eyes and the story is just great. And it's absolutely hilarious to boot.

[@buzzlightyear1213]

Now, after Warner Bros lost the movie license for lego; it's kinda suspicious that lego has mostly made more sets with Universal IPs, like Despicable Me, Troll's, Fast and the Furious, Super Mario... Just sayin' it can't be a coincidence

[@twist58]

Universal is coincidentally making a new Lego movie.

[@buzzlightyear1213]

@@twist58 with that sayed: I wonder which character will take Batman's place as a lead role if he's not gonna be in the 3rd movie

[@mycroft3322]

Dayum that’s a really well done video, I wasn’t expecting you to have less than 500 subs, we should change that

[@TheGreatEvan]

hey algorithm this video is so engaging i am very engaged

[@beerenmusli8220]

Fantastic essay.

[@YuutaTogashi0707]

How has it been 10 years already!?

[@EdgarOnRRVR]

15:44 AINT NO WAY LMAO

[@lizzietizzy]

What a great video! Loved your insights - thanks for sharing!

[@ianeons9278]

I’ve heard that there’s a new Lego Movie coming in October of this year called Piece by Piece about the story of Pharrell Williams.

[@jamesmcdreviews4699]

This video was finished before that was announced which is why I didn’t reference it, but I did hear about it.

[@gandalflotr2898]

One thing I like about Lego movie franchise it's the message of value of family

[@ferminmarkpousada1455]

I might be one of the few people who genuinely loves The LEGO Movie 2

[@delirious_drama]

only 41 views?! this is such a good video!!!!!

[@rpgincorporated8302]

I'm one of the rare people who enjoyed the second part more than the first, and your video helped me understand why my opinion isn't as popular. I liked the first movie, a lot, but nothing felt like a plot twist in it. That versimilitude was shattered as soon as I saw the first "relic." The plot twist being"*Gasp!* LEGO is a TOY?!" didn't even register as a supposed twist, and I didn't feel that playing into the tropes served the story, but it was a fun ride nonetheless. Meanwhile, I liked how we got to fully embrace that they were toys in the second part, I somehow did not realize that Rex was voiced by Chris Pratt as well, "Not Into Gotham City Guys" and "Not Evil" played on repeat in my house, and the twist at the end how the entire gimmick of the movie was born out of the brother's love for his sister got me good.

[@monakgaming]

realy good

[@TimBorg]

i wish they would make a 3rd movie and a classic space / benny spinoff movies

[@jamesmcdreviews4699]

Ive always had a trailer in mind for a Monster Fighters movie but that will never happen lol

[@jackofalltraits2145]

As a massive fan of both the original Lego Movie and the Lego Ninjago tv show up to that point, I was really hyped for the movie. The show basically was a mash up of the world building and lore of Lord of the Rings, the drama and epic plots of Star Wars, and the lovable and identifiable characters of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In other words: it was awesome. Imagine my disappointment coming out of the theaters in 2017 after seeing the Ninjago movie. Animation aside, they really dropped the ball with that one.

[@jamesmcdreviews4699]

At some point I gotta give the show a second try cause I've heard it gets really good.

[@jackofalltraits2145]

It does. I have a lot of fond memories of the first five seasons. The show has its problems but just like the Lego Movie it never felt like an excuse to sell toys. It felt like there was an actual engaging storyline and characters that the writers put effort into.

[@hiddencitypictures]

I personally prefer Lego Ninjago to The Second Part. It might just be the Ninjago theme, but it is physically impossible for me to watch The Second Part in one go, while it isn't for Ningago.

[@jamesmcdreviews4699]

I’ll give you that; the second part just feels longer and more drawn out.

[@benfostersworldofwonder8226]

Here are my personal rankings. The Lego Movie: Absolutly groundbreaking and one of the best movies ever. 10/10. The Lego Batman Movie: Nice story and great message: 8/10. The Lego Ninjago Movie: Basically a giant anti-bullying PSA. The heroes are idiots the side characters are assholes and the villans are either stupid or are just there for the sake of having a bad guy. Also the ending made the entire adventure completley and utterly POINTLESS and honestly painful to rewatch. 3/10 The Lego Movie 2 The Second Part: Could have done without the nasty side characters and idiotic storytelling but had some good ideas and at least they wrapped up the lego movie story. 5/10

[@icecreamhero2375]

I disagree the Lego movie 2 is awesome. It ups the antie from the first movie and is more action packed.

[@Aaylias]

No, it's actually not been ten years... right? it's only been 5 years... no.. 3... ITS BEEN 10 YEARS????

[@LegoMoviesSuck]

HOW COME THIS VIDEO IS POPULAR AND MY SET OF VIDEOS AREN'T??? THE LEGO MOVIES ARE THE WORST MOVIES EVER CREATED!!!!!! 😡
